CHAPTER FIFTY-ONE
THE MAGIC OF RECORDERS.THE BAR, GREY HOTEL AND SUITES, 7:15PM."My goodness, you mean Jack, the famous photographer and system engineering student from NYU, is your brother and you've never mentioned it?" Jenna asked in awe."Yes he is, you don't really expect me to go around telling everyone that Jack Stevens is my elder brother, do you?" Robin smiled."Okay that makes sense, but still, you could have told me. It will do my fashion designing career a whole lot if my clients know that I know someone like Jack," Jenna replied with dreamy eyes."I can always introduce you to Jack personally, if that's what you want."Of course, Rob, I...,"Joe frowned at her reaction and said, "I hope you remember that you and I are in a relationship now, Jen?""Oh please, can't I admire a handsome guy with lovely icy grey eyes?" Jenna teased in reply, while Robin's mind was fixed on Andrew and Jack, who sat at a table opposite them."No, you can't," Joe replied with a serious look."Oh come on, what's

KNOCK KNOCK.ROBIN'S SUITE, GREY HOTELS AND SUITES, 10PM."Nothing Drew, I was just greeting her good night, that's all," Harry answered."Okay, you can take your leave now, but let me make one thing straight. I don't wanna ever see you do that to Robin again, man. Got it?""Sure man, see you guys tomorrow," Harry said before leaving the room."You shouldn't be here by this time. Stacey and Clara will be coming up soon, so please leave, I also need to get some rest," Robin turned away from him."You seemed to have no problem with Harry being in here with you for so long, then why not with your boyfriend, huh?" Andrew asked in a deep voice, his face turning totally expressionless."I have no time for this, you're just so annoying. I don't remember asking you to explain why the hell you allowed Rita to stick to you like glue, all day.""Rita's a good friend of mine, it's only natural if we talked with each other. How am I being annoying, I just wanted to talk to you about Sapphire,""Oh

It had always been a clear thing that my twin had feelings for Jenna, I never never really understood why they both had to pretend like they felt nothing for each other anyway.I guess Andrew was just too focuse

COMPETITION DAY 1 PT 2THE BEEHIVE ARENA, NOON."Here comes Andrew Alexander Grey and his teammate, Robin Jane Stevens. Let's clap for them guys," Vanessa encouraged.The reaction of the audience was mixed with fans of both clubs cheering their respective clubs on and insulting the others.Holding Robin's shaking hand, Andrew led her up the stage with a straight face, trying not to get overwhelmed by the audience.It wasn't a lie that he was nervous despite being exposed to the public as the heir to the Grey Business Empire, he had never gotten quite used to the spotlight.He had only pretended all the while, as though he was confident enough, but on the inside, he was only trying to please the public eye by appearing tough and detached from it all."They should be ashamed of themselves, I'm sure they're the ones who copied The Storm," fans of The Storm Team commented on the gaming platform.Several hateful remarks which were countered by fans of The Braves were made until Alan called

COMPETITION DAY 1 PT 3THE BEEHIVE ARENA, 12:30PM."Mr Andrew Grey, Mr Max Reed, I'd advise you both to calm down now. This is not a boxing ring, if you don't desist from using those swear words, I'd have to disqualify you both for this round, do you understand? I said do you or do you not understand?" Roger, the head judge asked once again, when both Andrew and Max remained silent with deadly looks directed at each other."Miss Robin Stevens is Max telling the truth? Did you really offer to give all The Braves' ideas for the competition to The Storm Team?" Alan asked in a serious tone.Robin who was still in shock at the lie Max just told, stammered in reply, "N.. no, no, of c.. course not. I would never do such a thing. I only got to know about Max Reed last week. I don't even have the club's email address, I didn't do it, Max is telling a lie, he stole our ideas someway somehow and he's trying to shift the blame to me. You all have to believe me. Andrew listen to me, I didn't do it

THE COLD SHOULDERANDREW'S SUITE, THE GREY HOTEL AND SUITES, 1: 40PM."Jenny? I thought she was expelled from AUT and she's moved to London," Robin said in surprise."You underestimate Jenny. She is a psycho, a total maniac, she'll do anything to be with me. I get that I'm handsome and all, but it's really creepy when I have girls doing crazy things just to get my attention. When she and I dated, she was way too obsessed with me and that was why we didn't last more than three days. I asked you a question Robin, did you join forces with Jenny to ruin me? When you told me you loved me, was it all a lie?" Andrew frowned still caging her with his hands on either side of the wall."Of course I meant it, how could you even ask me that?""I just don't get it, why would you do that to me Rob. I and the other Bravers have worked so hard this season. How could you betray us all like that? Was there anything that you lacked? I've given you everything you wanted so far, so what's up with you aski

THE SPYBUTTERFLY LODGE, ROBIN'S ROOM, 1: 43PM."Andrew?" Robin said, more like a question. She just couldn't believe that Andrew decided to phone her finally."Rob, I need you to listen to me carefully, okay?" He whispered, as though he was trying to prevent someone from hearing."Why? What is it?" Robin asked confusedly, looking at Clara and Stacey, who were obviously eager to know the reason why Andrew had called."It's regarding the accusations labelled against you. I want you to meet me at the top floor of The Braves Club at 3pm on the dot. Don't tell anyone about this okay?""Sure then, I'll see you," she replied and cut the call."What did he say?" Clara asked, inquisitively."Nothing really, just for me to submit the termination agreement that Harry gave me to sign in order to totally leave The Braves.""I'm so sorry that you have to go through all these Rob. I thought he was calling cos he missed you. When I see Andrew next time, I'll really gonna knock some sense into him,"

CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT
MORE FIGHTS?BUTTERFLY LODGE, 7:00PMANDREW'S POVI drove my favourite sports car into the parking lot of Butterfly Lodge before tipping the security guards and then making my way towards the stairs.The Butterfly Lodge was a hostel for scholarship students that my father, Silas Grey established four years back. As an alumni of AUT, he had always been supportive of the progress of the university.His reason for establishing the university was to help poor students like my mum had been when she was younger. It kinda made me proud to know that I was responsible for the fees of a lot of students living here, without them even knowing.Taking the stairs two at a time, I made my way to the first floor of the building where Robin stayed with Stacey and Clara.The past few days had been emotionally draining for me, so much so that I almost lost trust in everyone.The feeling of total betrayal, that too from someone who I loved and trusted so much with the things I loved the most, it was just

EXPLANATIONS AND REVELATIONS PT 1ANDREW'S SECRET BASE, 7:10PM."It's nothing Rob, Andrew's here for you. You can go with him now," Stacey tried to convince Robin, while I stood, confused at what just happened."How can it be nothing? Clara just ran out while crying, why was she shouting? What's going on here?""Let's just go, I'll explain it all to you in the car. Stace, I'll have to borrow your friend for the entire night, if that's okay with you. She has a lot of studying to do and I intend to help her out.""It's no problem, but what would you do about those false accusations?""You don't have to worry about that, okay? We're going now. Bye," Robin replied and then we left the flat.On the drive to my secret base, I explained the entire argument to Robin."Do you have an idea why she's reacting that way?" I asked.I mean for all I know Clara's the bad guy in the story, she was the one who let Evans down.I figured Robin might have an idea about Clara's version of the story and th
